Hi Im Lucy and I am 30 years old from the UK.

I am an avid crafter and particularly enjoy journaling, cross stitch, scrap booking and miniature doll house kits.

I am a HUGE Harry Potter fan (Slytherine House) and even have a tattoo on my arm of the deathly hallows.

I have three cats and adore them, I spend a lot of my time rubbing tummies and playing with them.

Disney is another huge passion of mine in particular Beauty and the Beast and Little Mermaid.

I have previously had penpals but unfortunately they were not consistent so I am looking forward to getting regular mail from people.

I have recently got into making Japanese miniature dollhouse kits. I love the intricacy of making teeny furniture and food items. The houses look wonderful when finished and have small battery operated lights inside.

I adore all paper crafts- card making, journaling, scrap booking and pen pal bits and bobs. I spend a lot of my free time browsing shops for craft items and beautiful things that I can stick on everything. I have a washi tape and embellishment addiction for sure!

I have always knitted and cross stitched since I was a little girl. I particularly enjoy making toys and animals, when my niece and nephew were small their cribs were full of little soft things I had made. I cannot however crochet, I find it too fiddly and cant get my tension right.

I have dabbled in polymer clay crafting but its not a passion of mine. Give me a pad of paper and some glue anyway!

Being born in the 80s (just) all my favourite films are from my childhood. Labyrinth with David Bowie is my ALL TIME fave movie and I know all the words off by heart. Drop dead Fred, Bill & Ted, Return to Oz, Princess Bride and Splash - But anything 80s or early 90s

Of course the entire Harry Potter franchise are some of my favourite to watch and anything Disney. I would watch beauty and the beast and little mermaid on VHS and rewind and replay over and over as a little girl.

Magic of the faraway tree and anything Enid Blyton were read to me as a child and still hold a huge fondness in my heart. I read a lot of young adult fiction as I enjoy the escapism and easy reads before bed. Harry Potter, Hunger Games, Mermaids Daughter, The Narnia series etc are all books I could reread to death.

Original Winnie the Pooh books are filled with the most wonderful life lessons and quotes of inspiration.
